I am so addicted too! This season is good and definitely a little more racey than past seasons. As long as it isn't Courtney in the end, I will be happy. She is not in it for the right reasons and honestly, I will be a little disappointed in Ben and his judgement or lack thereof if he picks her.

I love the Bachelor but I seem to watch some seasons and not others, but I've definitely been watching this season and I can't wait for later tonight either...as lame as that sounds! I really like Kacie B, so much better than terrible Courtney! The show is such a trainwreck but in the best possible way :)

have you read the spoilers? i'm normally anti-spoilers but for some reason i had to know so i cheated and checked out reality steve. i, of course, won't say anything here, but the reality steve website knows everything for those who are curious and can't wait to know!

I have to admit that I'm addicted as well. I actually look forward to Monday nights!! I'm for Kacie B. as well but it wouldn't be the funny show that it is without the likes of "interesting" ladies like Courtney! :)

I cannot wait to watch tonight's episode! I've got all my sisters and even my boyfriend hooked. Ben is such a nut, I don't think he's Bachelor material, so he is perfect to make fun of all episode. I love reading SayNoToCosmo.com the next day to read her recap.

I'm addicted too!! my sister made me watch it with her because she gets so excited about it. I wanted to hate it so bad but i love it! now we have weekly dates on monday to watch it together.ps. i can't stand emily, hahaha!

Although I don't watch the show (have watched in some seasons past) my mom is completed addicted to the show! She gives me weekly updates even though she knows I have no idea who the contestants are. I think she secretly feels guilty about watching though since she'll always preface her comments with "Now you know I don't condone that sort of behavior BUT..."

Addicted is an understatement! I know who wins every season from reality Steve but lallalaLove to watch it all go down!!! He's my FAVE bachelor by far!! Seemingly much more down to earth and 'real' than the others...can't wait to tonight weeeEee!! Love this crazy train wreck!

I am watching it with a group of people, so somehow I feel less guilty! I am totally a Kacie B. fan and I was a Jennifer fan. I'm sad he sent her home! As Patti Stanger from the Millionaire Matchmaker would say "his picker is off!"

I have watched this show for years, mostly with the same group of girlfriends. I always want to see them end up happily ever after, but given the track record, we really just watch it for all train wreck that always takes place. This year's train wreck: COURTNEY!

I have been watching this show for a couple of years now and ECCKK! I hate this season! I dunno, I guess I just really never liked been and I honestly don't like any of the girls. Kacie B is sweet but for some reason all of them just annoy me. I actaully kinda like Courtney just because she's kind of a bitch and at this point, I'm not so emotionally invested in hoping one of the other girls win so I kinda like Courtney. And I dont particuarlily like Ben. I wish they would choose a compeltely NEW person to be the Bachelor!!! Emily (from Brad's second season) is the new bachelorette, and I actually like her so I hope its a good season. Anyways, if you havent watched the Bachelor Pad, that show's quite addicting as well. Probably possibly better and more so than the Bachelor/ette!

Last year at boarding school, I had literally 1-2 hours a week when I was free to sit down at my computer and watch TV, and for some reason I found myself getting sucked into The Bachelor. Totally a guilty pleasure, but sooo entertaining and fascinating. I have only seen one episode this season. It is always amazing to me how anyone could genuinely hope to find true love on that show, and yet I believe that some of them honestly mean it. I don't think that I could ever deal with that nerve-racking of a situation, but it is fun watching them do it. :-)

Unfortunately, I believe Courtney has been said to be the winner(if you want to call it that)of this season. However, as horrible as she is, and after the slimy,disgusting video Ben realeased to "man up" his wimpy image, I think they deserve each other.

Nevertheless, they're both getting what they really want, which is for him, attention to his wine business which has benefitted greatly since last season. For her it's all about her modeling career. All-in-all, they're both probably happy with the results regardless of the so-called search for "true love".

Sorry if that sounds cynical, but as much as I'd like to be more of a romantic, in the case of this show's track record, it's just not a reality!

Ahaha! Joanna, I started watching the show because my mom and sister (who live in different cities) were watching and it was something fun to do "together." And now I can't stop. My poor roommate heard me cracking up the other night (hello, crazy Courtney) and started watching, too! It's like a disease. And a train wreck. But without doctors (at least until Emily finishes that Ph.D.). Aaaaand I have just proved that I have seen way too much of this show! Ha happy watching!

I'm addicted too! But to be honest, I am SO unimpressed by Ben. He expects so much out of these girls and is always wanting to know what they can offer him without putting any effort in himself. Sure, he's funny and whatnot. But he also seems like a huge narcissist, in my opinion.

yes!!! My Mom and I watched the very first bachelor back in the day and ever since then have watched almost every series. Even if I find the bachelor repulsive I find my self hooked! What is with it???!!!

We renamed Monday to "Feel Bad Monday" and we watch the Bachelor, gossip and eat really cheap pizza and other kinds of foods that we know will make us feel like we need to go to the hospital. It helps me comeback strong on Tuesday, like getting a second chance at life :)

Kaycie B is the cutest, but she's too good for Ben I'm starting to think.

LoL! My husband and I have a deal where we each pick a show that the other has to watch with us. I make him watch the bachelor!! Hahaha... He'll hate that I announced that on the world wide web...rootin' for team kacie b!

I have never watched it before this season and now I am HOOKED! I was with a friend tonight and right after dinner I had a mini-meltdown when I realized I was missing the new episode and will have to wait because I don't have DVR ;) hahaha it was a sad moment in my life .......anyway, go Kacie B!!!

If it's on and I'm scrolling through the tv I'll maybe watch a few minutes. The girls are so catty though! And the bachelor this season reminds me of a cross between Josh Groban and a caveman- with Josh Groban being better looking.

Guilt pleasure! It's so fake you have to laugh. I always tell my husband you could fall in love with a cardboard box with the dates and place they go on that show! A real date should be giving them 200 bucks to last two weeks in a one bedroom apartment- see who loves who then hahaha

I also love Kacie B. I liked Jennifer and was SHOCKED he got rid of her and kept Courtney and Blakely last week!

I watch it, too! Last week, Ben and the ladies were in Puerto Rico, where me and my husband honeymooned! It was the ONLY time I could convince him to watch the show with me, ha. Does Alex watch it with you? xo.

I am guilty, as well. I tune into the Bach each week. This season is making me angry though...I LOVED Ben last season but I don't think he is thinking clearly this time around! lol Are you still watching New Girl? How GREAT is that show!?Char xowww.itsacharmlife.blogspot.com

It's awful - but like a trainwreck, I can't look away! ;) It cracks me up that all these girls get so involved just because they're on a TV show, when in reality, he's just a tool who's not terribly suave or good-looking and who they'd probably blow off if he approached them in a bar. Ahh, good television though...

I am not sure why sometimes we are so addicted to such shows, or serials, but I am addicted too. Maybe it switches off the brain. You do not need to think, just relax on the sofa and watch. I wrote one big post about it- my little addictions: journals, some serials, shows,turning hair through fingers. :) G

Yes, Im watching right along with you! I honestly can't stand Ben, I think hes the biggest dork,and not good with women at all. Just my opinion though. REALLY...looking forward to next season of The Bachelorette with Emily. :)

I love Kacie B! I heard Courtney wins though and I feel like that's why I keep watching because he CAN'T pick her. I feel like maybe Ben is the typical guy and just going after the sleazy girl if she wins

guilty : / so bad but sooo good. I call the final 2 to be Lindsi and Kacie B. I love Kacie! I HATE courntey, i think she is vile and nasty and not even cute! if he pics her i will be shocked. She clearly doesnt like him, you can totally tell she is in it to be on TV or the Bachelor Pad (perfect candidate for that). And Ben's hair is the most hideous thing I have EVER seen, its seriously awful.

I've watched this show since Brad Womack's first season and I am addicted. I too think it's a pretty bad show but it somehow has magic powers to suck us in back. I can't wait for live commentary during the finale, hope you will do it again!
